Adapted from the 12 Weeks of Franciscan Peace by Carolyn D. Townes, ofs. Sherrill Guimond, ofs, Formation Director, Eastern Canada Region, has provided twelve one-page documents for JPIC use in monthly fraternity meetings. Each month focuses on one specific PEACE building block as follows:
  1. Prayer
  2. Empathy
  3. Listening
  4. Compassion
  5. Evangelical Love
  6. Mindfulness
  7. Humility
  8. Poverty
  9. Kindness
  10. Silence
  11. Conversion
  12. Peace
Each page includes a connection to the previous month, a short explanation of the month's theme, a Psalm fragment, a Reflection Question and a prayer for the Month. Download the 12-month pack here.
View Carolyn's' Peace Video. Using St. Francis' prayer sung by Robert Kochis, this video introduces the 5 Peace Principles: Prayer, Empathy, Active Listening, Compassion and Agapé (Evangelical Love)..
